THE WATC.UAS M A1,J'
STATE GUARD.
Thin is the way the Asheville (
and then rukes the Winston
Sentinel and that paper's correspondent,
while ostensiblv replying to this P"!?'
The mixture is not good, because it is
difficult to separate what is intended for
this paper and what for the other paj
per, but it fe not hard to know what is
meant for the correspondent.! It is no
part of this papers quarrel, and it does
not propose to enter into it, would
make no reply but that it is necessary
to get out of -the Citizen's "aggrega
tion remarks." j
To begin with, the Watchman docjs
not care: for a newspaper discussion
with any paper on the subject of the
State Guard and the amount of "mod-
"erate good cheer" consumed in their
recent camp, it only cxpresseu opin
jons inferences drawn from the verb
al statements ot eye-witnesses, wniqn
were considered good authority, and a
sufficient substantial premiss to justify
comment. I This paper does however.
obiect most seriously to the Citizen
flaying oyer its snoumers me msiun
Sentinel and its correspondent. The
Sentinel And this irate correspondent
must stanli alone, separate and apajrt
from the Watchman, lighting, as they
are able to do, their own battles.
The writer is constrainedjo say that
t;he paro graph; copied from the Senti
nel's correspondence was only done f jr
purpose of illustrating that the eecrjet
.of "good cheer' in camp was an open
was not endorsed, but that portion rel
ative to whiskey in c.tmp was copied as
it corroborated fully all the reports that
had come to the ears of the writer.
Now if these reports, which were vol
untary, and unanimous, were slanders
on the encampment, then, indeed must
the averaced man be depraved. Re
marks mi'jht be ckoted, coming from
individuals of undoubtd truth, that
would astonish the Citizen seeing that
ignorance prevails in Asheville, while
knowledge of facts obtain throughout
the State and while they were not in
tended as strictures on the conduct of
any one, yet were the facts brought
out as testimony they would prove most
damaging.
This much has been said in defence
of the positition taken by the Watch
MAy. and it. may be remarked that said
position was taken independent ot the
views which the Winston Sentinel or of
that paper's correspondent may enter
tertam. In dealing with the matter
"hereafter should there be occasion)
the Citizen will oblige by treating what
may be designed for the Watchman !
m separate paragraph, at least, the
reason of this request is because of the
, Citizens frequent use of such terms as
malice." "slander," &c. There is no
possible foundation for applying either
of these terms to the remarks of this
paper. Thera is not the scintilla of
malice,ora faint breath of slander in any
'thing this paper has said, and he who
assarb to tli3 contrary i. a etffariger to
truth.
The Citizen says :
Anonymous malice has made state
ments with the slightest material of foun
dation, and t!ic 1Yatvhman draws inferen
ces without substantial premises. It is
not claimed anywhere that, the State
Guard is a temperance organization, dud
that it -officers and men are itoljlower of
father Matthew. It wan not pretcMl that
in the hours of relaxation the principles
of total abstinence should govern the
camp. No question that in the tent of
both men and officers there was material
for moderately good cheer. But there is
no investigation needed. We take it upon
ourselves to say, without tear1 of contra
diction, that uti lod.T of men, young or
old, ever conducted themselves in the
camp, and on the streets of Asheville,
frith more perfect propriety.
This is clearly a tacit acknowledgement
of the fact as to whiskey being! in
camp, and in it the Citizen says no
more thai the Watchman, except as
to the perfect propriety of the men.
It is gratifying to know" that they con
ducted themselves well, under the cir
cumstances. The word Of the Citizen
is certainly good authority, and it is ac
cepted, so far as this paper is concerned
as stating just the facts in the case.
If any officer or officers were shameful
ly under the influence of whiskey, the
Citizen high toned and honorable ;
seeking the greatest good to the great
est number would out with it, and be
load in demanding resignations.
Now, look here, "men of Rowan r
Rend the annexted lettcrof Capt. V. E.
McBee, and do. what you can to help
the cause. The Railroad company -proposes
to collect and ship North, where
they will exhibit to those contempla

of our products. All the adjoining
counties have taken, a lively interest in
this matter and now Rowan has an op
portunity to compete with her sister

DAVIE COUNTY IMST HAVE A
RAILROAD.
The universal verdict of every man
woman and child in this county is Rail
road communication to some commercial
mart at the earliest possible moment.
Why! For several good and substantial
reasons.
First : Fifty years of growth and grad
ual development in all matters pertaining
to the advance men! of our county i., of j
itself, a sufficient reason why we ought
to have the benefit of railroad communi
cation. Second: Our constantly growing posi
tion as an iuiand town, and the -marked
improvement in all of onr agricultural
pursuits, the increase iu onr productions
and relative commercial values, render
the cousuination of such a scheme at this
time an actual necessity in commercial
parlance!
Third: The exigencies of the times de
mand an outlet for onr marketable crop?,
inasmuch as expeditous transportation is
to the. farmer and the manufacturer of the
utmost importance in the exchange of all
commodities.
Fourth : Above and beyond all, Davie
County is too rich and productive a sec
tion to be left outside the pale of steel
rails and steamboat communication, and
to remain dependent upon wagons, carts
and vehicles for the carrying away of
her crops which amount yearly to over
round million,
Can a railroad be built between this
point and Salisbury during the forth
Coming year? Most emphatically yes!
Well, what will be the expense? Let us
reckon the estimated cost of such a road
from the standpoint of a practical engi
neer who knows whereof he speaks.
Estimate for a uarrow gauge railroad
between this point and Salisbury a dis
tunes of twenty miles:
Surveying- and locating at
$25.00 per mile, $ 500,00
Grading twenty miles at
$400 per mile, 8,000.00
Ravi 1 road iron, 301bs to the
yard, 47 tons per mile, at
$30 per ton, 28.200 00
Fish bars, 8,800 lbs. 400 00
Railroad ties, 2,640
per
mile, at 20cts each,
10,560.00
1,200.00
15,000.00
16,000.00
4,000.09
5,000.00
Railroad spikes, 5,500,
Bridges aud depots,
Twb locomotives, 16 tous,
at $8,000 each,
Freight aud passenger care,
Incidentals,
Grand total for a railroad
complete and equiped, $33,660.00
Eighty-eight thousand six hundred and
sixty dollars for a railroad connection.
Cheap at that price and even cheap if we
reckon at one hundred thousand aud
more.
Will Rowan County, our old and rev
rened mother, to whom we have always
paid allegiance, come forwatd with one
halt erf the estimated cost ($44,330.00)
and build to the riveiT If she will, we
will pledge our honor, our faith, our man
hood and if needs be, our birth-right to
complete the road from that point to this
place at the earliest possible moment.
Let us be united bv steel rails and grow
together iu strength, wealth, peace, hap
piness, comfort aud convenience. What
say you staid aud comely Rowan! Shall
we inaugurate the scheme aud show to
our sister counties our pluck and energy
in the matter of progress aud develop
ment f
Will such a road payf Most asan redly.
Let us see if it will, by a few statistics
carefully gathered. Wagons of produce
sent from Davie County to the following
points yearly:
To Lexington, 100
4 Salisbury, 800
"Winston, ,51X1
"Statesville, 200
Here we have on an average 2,600 wag
ons carrying 2,600,000 pounds of produce
yearly, which reckoned at 25cts per hun
dred for freight charges, gives us for mon
ey spent in the transportation of our com
modities $650,000, only allowing one trip
per year for the above number of wagons.
Are not these figures suggestive? Can
not a railroad be bnilt, equiped and put
in running order on the strength of these
figures, which, if we reckon aright, are
far below the average than above it.
Surely we have cause and sufficient
reasons to clamor for a mi! road". Shall
we lie in a comatose state and see our
products decrease iu marketable value
for the want of expeditious transporta
tion? The freight alone on our live stock and
farm productions, which amount anuual
ly to $369,404, would pay for the equip
ment of a road in a few years.
Rowan and Davie the people of both
sections look to you for the speedy in
angulation of the proposed railroad
scheme, which is destined to become a
very great and important factor in the
development of your resources, your pro
gress -and your material advancement
and in all things pertaining to yonr
growth, stability, happiuess and enlight
enment. Dawe Times.

rrosjteritjf. J ash on the Survey ! ! !
As stated it our last week's issue, the
stockholders of the Yadkin Railroad
Company, lu-hl a meeting in Salisbury,
Angust the 19th. We learn fiom the
Watehman, that the meeting was a live
ly one, much interest was manifested
and thorough harmony prevailed.
Salisbury has awoke from her long
slumber, and steps forth upon the arena
iu full trim foi active business.
A commit te, with full authoiity to era
ploy a corps of engineers was appointed,
and the iuuy necessary to defray the
expense of a survey, is now in the hands
of the Treasurer, V. Mauuey, Eq.
We hail with genuine pleasure this
initial sitep ot enterprise, and let our
Staalv
people, with open purses and
outstretched arms, welcome this effort
which, if fully successful, will develop
her rich bat hid en, resources. Cutoff,
as we am from railroad facilities, we are
at a miserable disadvantage to other
people, and Can never accomplish our
highest destiny until the shrill whittle ef
the steam horte is beard throughout our
borders. f
Imbedded, beneath Stanly's soil is tons
of precious ore; in our forest is growing
thousands of the choicest limber for lum
ber and shingles; and upon the historic
banks of the Vadkiu,. numerous sites for
mills and factories unsurpassed any where
is the laud of the "Sunny South." These
resources are totally or ouly partially
developed, and a railroad alone can
bring out and up these uiiue of wealth.
But the fuels are so apparent that in
telligent and thoughtful minds need no
arguiuent to convince tiieui of the ne
cessity of a railroad. Now, that we have
something that is tangible iu form,
let us take hold, support the hands of
the Compiiuy and vigorously push 'on
wurUlhe scheme.
Nor.h Carolina Products.
To be Exhibited at Northern Fairs.
Raleigh News and Observer (Saturday).
Yesterday there was a rather strange
sight to be seen at the agricultural build
ing Stretching a distance of 1 08 feet
was a distinctive exhibit ot Noi th Caroli
na's Varied resources in the most compact
fjirih imaginable. The exhibit is to go to
fourteen Noi l hern fail s, to compete for
gold medals offered for the largest varie
ty of field crops, woods, timbers and min
erals exhibited by Southern aud Western
Slates Seeking immigration. The idea
is Mr. Patrick's own and struck the
observer as being just the thing to hit
the Npular fancy. There was a strip of
clofh, plaid goods, forty feet long, upon
which Was painted "North Carolina Mills
Manufacture, a Fine aud Durable Grade
of Cloth." Then came a map of the Slate,
and on a white strip of cloth twenty feet
long the words "North Carolina." An
other map followed, after which was
another strip of cloth, on which were the
words ''North Carlina Plaids, Thomas M.
Holt, Haw River Mills." Below these
inscriptions and maps hung cases made
of all the woods found iu the State, and
divvied into little compartments. Tnere
are no less than twenty-one of these cases.
The compart men ts, each four inches
square, are covered with mica or glass,
and they contain eighteen kinds ot coin,
as well as every grain or grass iu the
State, beans, wild nuts and peanuts (31)
kinds, cotton seed and meal, tea seed, silk
cocoons, etc., wines, oils of various kinds,
dried fruit , 71 varieties of medicinal herbs,
162 kinds of minerals, as well as grains
aud grasses iu the sheaf, and hundreds
of other things which illustrate North
Carolina. The compactness of all this
may be understood when it is stated that
the cases, which are 2x3 feet in size and
an inch thick, together with the cloth,
etc, go neatly iu the special packing
boxes about 3x4 feet iu size. All the
work was done iu the agricultural build
ing. Theie are two displays, precisely
alike, and these will be taken today to
Pennsylvania, and during Sctcuiber and
October will be exhibited at fourteen fairs
in that State. Last year Mr. Patrick
made a small display at one or two fairs
in Pennsylvania; this time his plan is
comprehensive. Both exhibits and the
expenses of the display will fall under
$500, he says, and he regards it as a
splendid investment. He leaves today
for Pennsylvania. Fiom that State the
bulk of the immigration info North Caro
lina now comes, and hence the venture
wil be regarded with special interest.
Mr. Patrick proposes to bring back as
trophies many gold medals, and he will
alsq keep' the readers of the News aud
Observer informed as to his progress and
success in his novel tour of the Keystone
State. He will, while nway, distribute
100)00 pamphlets about North Catoliua.

Houston Age
A certain lady suspected that her hnr
band was in the habit of kissing the cook,
a pretty German girl, by the by, and re
solved to detect him in the act. After
watchiug four days, she heard him come
in one evening and gently pass through
iuto the kitchen. Now K ite was out that
evening and the kitchen was dark.
Burning with jealously, the wife took
some matches iu her hand, and, hastily
placed her shawl over her head, as Kate
often did, she entered the kitchen by the
back door, and was almost immediately
seized and embraced and kisedin the
most ardent manner. With her heart
almost bursting with rage and jealousy,
the injured wife prepared to administer
a terrible rebuke to her unfaithful spouse.
Tearing herself fiom his embrace, sheJ
struck a match and stood face to face
with Kate's beau, one of the factory boys.
Her husband says Ins wife has never
treated him as well since the. first mouth
they were married as she has the past
